Dead Mans Party
Chapter 4
Up To You
Trey groaned as he neared the end of his final lap. He had somehow, managed to do all 75 of his laps, with the double weights in record time. He smirked as he neared the others, jogging past them as they all watched. He climbed the steps that lead to the back door of the dojo, jumping up and down, waving his arms. "Yeah!!" he shouted, then began to punch at the air. The others watched, sweatdropping. "Isn't that a scene out of that one movie with the boxer?" asked Morty, scratching his head a bit, Yoh laughing lightly. Trey struck a pose, laughing. "Ahahahhahahaha! I did it!! I can't feel my legs, but I did it!!" he shouted, Lenny rolling his eyes. The others continued their tranning, Trey continuing to shout and what not, when everyone froze.
Someone had screamed, and Lenny knew just who. They exchanged glances and were in motion. "Jun!" shouted Len, quickly accending the stairs, the others following. He whipped the front door open, leaping down the stairs, Bason already in his weapon. Lenny faced the male who stood before him, the group quickly piling out on the porch. "Jun! Are you alright?!" asked Lenny, his voice slightly shakened. She nodded to him, blinking a bit, was shocked to see the others. "What are you all doing? Get back inside!" she damanded, not really sure Fausty here was really who he said he was.
Yoh blinked, looking to and fro, wondering what in the world was going on. The next thing that happend was everyone shouting, Jun arguing with Lenny about her wound, Lenny arguing with Trey to shut up, while Ryo attempted to split the two up. He scratched his head a bit, looking to Morty, who seemed to be frozen in place. Yoh blinked, wondering what was wrong with him, quickly following his short friends gaze...and was shocked as to what, moreoverly, who he saw before them.
Morty froze, in shock, horrid memories quickly rushing back to him. ...oh my God... he thought, his breath coming quickly, as he looked to the blonde male who stood before him. He felt panic stricken when their eyes met, wanted to run, but his body was frozen in fear, refused to move. The blonde tilted his head a bit, eyeing the short boy. "You look rather familar..." he said, his long index finger tapping the end of his narrow chin. Morty took a step back, keeping eye-contacted with the tall male. Yoh watched Morty, not sure what to do or say, only knew his friend was horrified, knew he was probably having flashbacks to that day long ago. "Yoh..." called Morty, terrified, his voice almost a whisper. Yoh leapt to him, kneeling beside him as he looked to Faust. "Faust VIII..." Yoh said softly, looking to the insane necromancer. Faust smiled, bowing slightly. "It's good to see you again...Yoh." he said, smiling coldy at the young boy. Yoh blinked a bit, didn't really fear Faust, seeing as they were allies and such now, or when they had last met ...but Morty... Hell, he didn't blame Morty for being paranoid, after all, Faust almost did kill him. "Faust what are you doing here?" asked Yoh, looking to his friend. Faust shrugged a bit, picking up his heavy coat from the floor.
"Just needed a little... R and R." he said, smiling, slinging the coat over his shoulder. Yoh blinked, scratching the back of his head some. Heck, even insane necromancer doctors need a vacation apparntly. "Well...." began Yoh, seeing the others staire at Faust. "Care to join us for dinner?" asked Yoh, closing his eyes smiling sheepily, as the others fell over anime style, including Morty. "Yoh!" shouted Morty, Yoh blinking. "Are you insane!?" he souted, Yoh blinking more. "Heh, yeah, I might be." he said, scratching the back of his head. Morty falling over anime style again. "Gah, he tried to kill me! He still might want to!" shouted Morty, the others blinking a bit, Faust standing near the dojo entrance, apparently in his own world while he attended to Eliza. "Shaman huddle." said Yoh, the others, including Jun, getting into a small huddle.
"Ok, look, he's a shaman like us, not to mention our ally, to top it off, he's against Hao." began Yoh, the others nodding a bit. "And I mean, there's alot of us, so if he DID try to pull anything, we could take care of him." he finished. "Oh, and he's our friend." The others blinked a bit. "Err, my friend?" said Yoh sweat dropping. "Well, I think it should be up to Morty, after all, he was almost killed by him in the first place." said Trey, the others agreeing. "Well, Trey, i'm impressed, you DO say intellegent things sometimes." said Lenny, smirking to his blue haired friend who growled a bit. "Pah, anyhoo, whatcha think morty? It's up to you." said Trey, the others now looking to their short, sandy blonde haired friend.
Morty looked down, knew Yoh was friends with this guy who nearly killed him, however he was terrified that Faust might want to finsih his examination. ...what do I do... he thought, not wanting to offend Faust, but not wanting to die either. He looked to Yoh, Yoh smiling some, "It's up to you Morty. You could always stay in my room." Morty blinked a bit, feeling a little better. ...at least if I stayed with Yoh, i'd feel safe... he thought, nodding a bit. "Well, I guess if it's ok with you..." he said, Yoh smiling, nodding eagerly. "Of corse!" he said, Morty smiling. "Alright then." he agreed, the others nodding. "Faust! You can stay with us!" yelled an anxious Yoh to his necromancer friend. Faust blinked a bit, shocked, not really expecting such a warm welcome, nonetheless, an invitation to stay. He looked to Morty, Morty smiling a bit, looking quite uneasy. Faust nodded to him, then the others. "I'd be honored to." said Faust, carefully tucking Eliza back into his coat.
"I'll get Tamora and Pillica." said Jun, entering the dojo, Li following close behind. Faust stood for a bit, with the others, watching them. "Yeah! We'll have a camp out!" shouted Trey, wrapping an arm around Lenny's slender neck. "Right Len?!" he asked, Lenny only shouting while he despritly tried to free himself from Trey's grasp. "I'd never camp out with YOU!" shouted Len, Trey only laughing. Yoh laughed too, along with Morty. "Come on guys, let's get some tea and cookies!" said Yoh, the others nodding, quickly making their way into the dojo and towards the kitchen, Faust following behind them a cold, cruel smirk playing across his deep purple lips.
Anna raced down the street, her bag in hand, her red bandana drapped over her right arm, flairing out as she ran. ...i've got to hurry... she thought, continuing, the thought of Yoh getting hurt, or changed, or possbly gone, driving her legs to move. She HAD to make it, she just had to. She wouldn't forgive herself if she didn't. She turned a corner quickly, hurrying down the sidewalk. She was almost there, seeing the dojo in the distance. ...almost there, come on...I can make it... she thought, not really use to all this running. Her legs ached as she neared the gate, quickly entering it. She glanced around, slowing her pace some. "Where is everyone...?" she asked herself, turning a bit to look around the area....and stopped, seeing someting red on the ground. She walked to it, her heart racing as she neared it for further inspection. ...blood... she thought, feeling panic wash over her. ...God no... she thought, standing, stepping back from the coagulated blood on the ground, fearing the worse for Yoh and the rest of her friends, only prayed they were all alright.
